I noticed that I can quite easily to select files that are older than two years,

We appreciate that you attempted to search for this and understand that due to the feature name (Rich File Operations) you may not have found it...we discussed changing the name of this feature but didn't come up with any better name that might be more easily found that I recall.

See this blurb about it: http://www.xyplorer.com/product.htm#richops

I read about it when buying the license and it was one reason I selected this program. Now when I was trying to use it, I did not find it. Should I change some setting? When I use drag and drop I can not see "Rich File Operations". The program has quite many setting so perhaps I have something in the wrong position.

Sorry, I reread the help (several times actually) and now I figured it. I think I must try it more as it is little complicated tool.

I am still wondering if there is some options for the operation as I saw a picture in the help which I did not see when doing the copy. So I need some new experiments.
